Thanks for the reply I'll try to keep track of replies..I assume taking it easy means speed limit :D)..I havent ridden it of course but Chuck says after tooling around the acerage, its really torquey, and feels a little mushy..of course hes used to our 1800 GOldwing lately..hes excited to drive it but wants to get it done cosmetically..think I'm glad I bought 3 he likes it that much..I can see it going to work..thus the milage questions..thanks again..

i should have mentioned that i'm running a 24 tooth rear sprocket.
i've seen them as big as 36 tooth, and still fit in the chain case.
sprocket size factors in to mpg.
